On Midsummer Eve, there will be dancing around the maypole, strawberries – and Ted Gärdestad music. Both Midsummer Eve 2022 and 2023, his 52-year-old hit "Sol, vind och vatten" was the most streamed on Spotify, the music service reports. It is also the song that is most often added to users' own lists with Midsummer themes. In 2021, it was Myra Granberg and "Lose my mind" that topped the list, and in 2020, Victor Leksell with "Svag".

"Sol, vind och vatten", written by Ted Gärdestad and Kenneth Gärdestad, was released as a single with Lena Andersson in October 1972. Ted Gärdestad then recorded the song for his album "Ted", which was released in 1973.
